# Give Elements The Same Width With Flexbox
|
||||
|
||||
By default, a row of elements in a basic flex container are going to have
|
||||
dynamic widths that accommodate their contents. This may not be desirable if
|
||||
you're going for a uniform look. You could give all child elements a fixed
|
||||
width (e.g. `width: 100px`), but that loses out on the _flexibility_ of a
|
||||
flexbox layout.
|
||||
|
||||
You can instead give all child elements a uniform and flexible width using the
|
||||
`flex` property.
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
.flex-container {
|
||||
display: flex;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
.flex-child {
|
||||
flex: 1;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This value is a relative ratio. If all children of the flex container have the
|
||||
same `flex` value (i.e. `1`), then they will all be equally sized and that size
|
||||
will adjust as the width of the flex container changes.
